Night By The Sea Bl Novels & Stories

I searched among them hoping I’d find my siblings, but before my eyes could successfully inspect the whole room; I was pushed to my feet in front of the Night Alpha. The smell of him like I remembered made a smashing return, stronger than the first time it hit me and definitely sharper. It was intense, and I was almost feeding on it with the way my nose twitched. “Which one of these people are worth saving, princess? I need you to take a long and careful look at them all and make a pick.” His words snapped me out of my reverie as my eyes snapped open and wide. I looked up at his face, terrified at the darkness that exploded through his pupils.

The lightning flashed again, casting a bright white light across the room. Thunder boomed again, closer this time. I wrapped my arms around myself instinctively and flinched. Pain bloomed across my shoulder, hot and pulsing. In the dim light, I could see the redness beneath my clothes. I swallowed hard. Mary had been cruel, she had stripped me of my dignity and my childhood, but she had never tried to burn me. If Caroline could look me in the eye and pour boiling water without a flicker of hesitation, what else was she capable of?

June The first thing I feel is the breeze. Soft, salty and cool against my skin, then the sound of the sea — slow, patient waves brushing against the shore like nothing in the world is in a hurry anymore. When I open my eyes, light spills across everything in gold and pale pink. The sun is just beginning to rise, low and gentle, not burning yet. It paints the water like melted glass. I’m lying on a beach bed beside my villa. For a second I panic — hospital, blood, fear — but then I turn my head.

Then suddenly Lauren stopped, her legs buckling beneath her like her batteries had abruptly died. “Lauren!” Karen cried, catching her as she fell. Lauren’s head lolled backward, her eyes closed, her breath deep and even. She was asleep. Karen carefully lowered her to the ground, where Lauren turned onto her left side and tucked her hands underneath her face, like she always had since she was very small. Her mother sat beside her, stroking her hair, and let the tears she’d been suppressing fall. She knew that Joe was never coming home. Karen opened her eyes and was startled to discover that it was night. She’d fallen asleep on the porch. Her neck hurt from resting against the hard metal and n

I got in the driver’s seat, started the engine, and we pulled out into the night. The drive to the private beach was quiet but comfortable. The city lights faded behind us as we took the coastal road, windows down, cool sea breeze blowing through the car. Rhea leaned her head back against the seat, hair dancing in the wind, looking more relaxed than I’d seen her in weeks. When we arrived, the entire beach was empty, just soft sand, gentle waves, and the massive blood red moon hanging low over the water, painting everything in deep crimson and silver. I parked right at the edge of the sand, killed the engine, and turned to her. “Ready?”

Chapter 65 "Go down and fetch her," Ythan ordered his crew, Jett Jamison. He killed all his traitorous men and he was the only one left among the pioneers. He was smiling as he watched Rhea on the current CCTV footage. She knocks on the door while looking around. "Yes, your majesty. Are you sure he didn't bring anyone or the police?" asked Jett.

She then began to look for a way to open the skylight. She looked under the bed for a remote that might have dropped, but could not find it. She then searched the dresser, recliner, and closet, but still, nothing was found. She soon began to touch the small buttons on the windowsill. She heard a soft hum and looked around to see what had changed. A beam of light shot from her right and it began to grow. Hae Mina stepped back and watched the walls retract and reveal the night and ocean. She climbed on the sill and used the headboard to rest her back on as she watched the moonbeams dance on the waves.

Her breathing steadied as she forced the memories back, locking them away where they belonged. Not tonight. She lay back on the bed, turning slightly to her side, her eyes closing. The exhaustion came quickly this time—heavy, unrelenting. And within minutes, she drifted off to sleep. The next morning came faster than she expected. Sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. For a few seconds, Sarah just lay still, staring at the ceiling, her mind blank. Then reality settled in. The dinner. Greg. Everything. She exhaled slowly and reached for her phone on the bedside table.

"Hey, Bianca. That guy Ethan owes you money, right? You can start collecting now. Principal and interest. Don't leave a single cent." Bianca Blackwood was a ruthless private loan shark and Ethan's former creditor.

"By the way, I've worked hard to seek justice for you. No matter what happens, at least I won't regret it." She smiled. "I've heard that all seas in the world are connected. So, this time next year, I'll be seeing you from a different beach." She looked at the sea one last time before turning around. What she saw sent chills down her back. Even through her cap, she could see a figure coming down from the yacht. It was Wyatt! She instinctively turned around. At the exact moment, Wyatt, who was coming down from the yacht, stopped in his tracks. He had an odd feeling which made him look up to see someone turning around.
